The Open 2023

[Asian Dawn]

I'm going for Tommy over Rory. So Fleetwood Mac.

 

[Imurg]

Really looking forward to this now, even though I'm working all week, it will be on in the background.
I'll get the last few hours at night at home though!!

Hope Matthew Jordan has a good tournament, can only imagine the buzz hitting the opening tee shot.

Hitting the first shot, getting the first birdie and leading The Open before 10,past 7 in the morning..
Its been some day already...

 

[Red devil]

On my way there now. Looking to follow Tommy and Scheffler,if I can get close. Was there Tuesday and it was doable but expecting 10 times the crowd today

 

[Crazyface]

The weather forecast looks like it maybe a tough last two days

 

[Slab]

I'm stuck with just live 'On the range' feed just now on The Open website, just signed up to their 'one club' which should give me free viewing for a couple of 3-balls from 9am

Best Tour bag so far ... Fitzpatrick's grey/siler Troon effort

Callaway's Beatles themed one looks like graffiti, TM's vibrant yellowish effort is just mahoosive

I was there today and as soon as this group was together the crowds were huge. Very difficult to get anywhere near. Going again Friday so I’m fully expecting it to be 10 times worse

If you can come back with any decent spots you find to stand etc it would be appreciated!

Nice to see a Matthew Jordan playing after coming through local qualifying.

Contrasts with Wimbledon where English Pros are gifted wild cards into a Major Tournament

Watching the first few groups tee off was like the first tee at H4H

What, really bad clothing and shanks galore

Anyone else wince as Jordan hit that bunker shot? Potential wrist breaker.

Yep.
But not as much as I winced at fitzy's sketchers ad...
Late breakfast watching the open is one of life's little bonuses.

Managed to secure my work diary to allow me good access to both golf and cricket the next few days in exchange for doing some work on Saturday. Worth it.

I really can’t be bothered to log in for work at the moment

Got Tiger Christensen (a) in club draw/sweep. Not going to win the big prize but chance of best Am, and half doz ProV1s…

 

[Slab]

I wonder if club members watching the players tee off on the 17th to start their rounds makes it seem like a shotgun start

 

[D-S]

Lucky it’s not OB down the left off the 1st!

 

[sjw]

Jesus
the bed wetters won’t be happy about this

I've already emailed them

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

Aaargh…just know that overuse of super slo-mo, especially in shots of individuals in the crowd, is going to get irritating…please cease and desist, at least severely curtail, it’s use. Now that that’s off my chest I can get back to enjoying the golf.
